Postconcussion Syndrome
Symptoms after a concussion
What is Postcommotional Syndrome (PCS)?
In Postcommotional Syndrome, you have lasting symptoms after a concussion or brain injury. This can last for weeks to months, during which time you may experience symptoms such as severe fatigue, headaches and confusion.
Have you hit your head, received a blow or had an accident? Has your head been hit or shaken and are you experiencing lasting symptoms, even weeks after the incident? Perhaps you have a concussion. A concussion goes away relatively quickly. What many people don’t know is that these concussion symptoms can persist for months or even years. You are then very likely to have Post-Communal Syndrome (PCS).
Do the symptoms have a negative effect on you? Do you experience that you can no longer go along with the rhythm of the day? Are you no longer able to live your life in your own way? Stop running! Good news: you can recover.
Move The Brain has PCS programs that provide effective and lasting recovery. We have recovered from PCS ourselves, work with a medically qualified team and base our work on research. Hence, each recovery program starts on-site, is personalized, intensive, and multidisciplinary, and you follow a program in our rehabilitation philosophy, with proven results.
We are going to help you, give you hope and want you to come back!

Program 10-day intensive training program
The 10-day recovery program is an intensive and extensive program that focuses on the recovery process of your body and brain. This program consists of three phases. Under the guidance of a multidisciplinary team, we work on restoring your body and brain, for a lasting and sustainable result.
1. Preliminary phase
Every person is different. During the intake interview, we want to gain more insight into the nature of you. We do this on the basis of questionnaires and a functional assessment. Based on this, we draw up a suitable program, adapted to your complaints and symptoms. Based on this research, we provide an advisory report with our recommendations. After you agree to the training program, we will also give you a week program a month before the program starts to prepare yourself as well as possible for the training on location.
2. Training Phase
The goal of Move the Brain’s training program is to help people overcome the debilitating symptoms of Post-Concussion Syndrome, burnout and PTSD. We do this based on the philosophy that the whole body should be trained. We conduct extensive assessments, including brain mapping, to find factors in the brain and body that are preventing you from reaching your potential. Every aspect of the program provides a clear focus and essential training when it comes to holistically healing your body, mind and brain. Using various tools, we monitor your progress in the program to improve the effectiveness of the various training components.
This program is personalized based on the advice drawn up during the intake, and specially developed for people with a low energy level due to the fatigue symptoms that many of our participants experience. From personal experience we know exactly how to draw up a suitable program, which is adjusted where necessary on a personal level. Thanks to our innovative methods, your body is stimulated to recover. In this way we ensure that you work towards an effective and lasting result. The program takes place every day between 8:30 AM and 5:00 PM, after which you can have dinner and overnight in a hotel nearby.
3. Return phase
The training program is certainly not over after this 10-day program. In the first month after the program we will contact you weekly to discuss the recovery process. After a month you will return to the location for a number of measurements. We compare the results of this with the tests of the intake and at the start of the program. In the meantime, you will continue to work on your behavior and lifestyle using the tools and knowledge we have given you. Depending on your programme, we will continue to coach you. In this way we hope to achieve an effective change without relapse. achieve change without relapse.
